Well I think that it is refreshing when the commies take a hit, today was one of those days.

Joe Manchin drops Christmas bomb on Democrats, says he will not support Biden's Build Back Better Act
And one of the big reasons why he can't support the BBBA is:
"I've always said this: If I can't go home and explain it to the people of West Virginia, I can't vote for it. And I cannot vote to continue with this piece of legislation. I just can't," Manchin said. "I've tried everything humanly possible. I can't get there.This is a no on this legislation," Manchin added. "I have tried everything I know to do."
And,
"My Democratic colleagues in Washington are determined to dramatically reshape our society in a way that leaves our country even more vulnerable to the threats we face. I cannot take that risk with a staggering debt of more than $29 trillion and inflation taxes that are real and harmful to every hard-working American at the gasoline pumps, grocery stores and utility bills with no end in sight," Manchin explained....
In fact, Manchin said that Democrats are being dishonest about the true cost of the "Build Back Better" bill.
"The American people deserve transparency on the true cost of the Build Back Better Act. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office determined the cost is upwards of $4.5 trillion which is more than double what the bill's ardent supporters have claimed. They continue to camouflage the real cost of the intent behind this bill," Manchin explained.

Oh...that was harsh, Joe. You just accused your fellow dimwits of being liars.
Joe Manchin better hire an army of security guards because right now because to the dimwit party he is worth far more to them DEAD than alive. If something were to happen to Joe, the bill to radically "reshape society" would become law.
Meanwhile...I have to think there are more than a few very sweet and lucrative incentives being offered to the RINOS in the senate to get one of them to flip. So...celebration at this point in time could be premature.

That's not true. The Republican governor would appoint a conservative republican to serve out the term.

There's also Kyrsten Sinema and maybe Doug Jones who might have voted against the bill if Manchin hadn't.

But now that Manchin has come out and announced his vote, no other democratic senators will need to do so. They can vote their party line, which helps in getting reelected.

Hah...I thought his state had a dimwit governor. In that case, Manchin can breathe a little easier.

I heard him called Senator Manchurian today. Appropriate.

No way, he is a HERO .... just like McCain that flew to DC from his deathbed to give a thumbs down on the eradicate the 0bamacare vote. A maverick willing to go against his leaders.
Now if you would describe a party as the Manchurian Party, I would agree.
